The symbolism of the jewel and the virtues of the stone in lithotherapy

The name of the jewel is inspired by the Latin given name "Stella" which means "star".

The eight-pointed star is found in many cultures: Mesopotamian, Native American, Hindu, ancient Egyptian, and even in Christianity.
Here it symbolizes spiritual guidance, self-confidence, a source of inspiration, courage, and open-mindedness towards the unknown.

Gold plating is a process steeped in history. This gilding technique has been used worldwide since antiquity. Once a sign of wealth and power, it now conveys elegance.

Cubic zirconia is a synthetic stone, not to be confused with zircon which is a natural stone. Its hardness and brilliance are similar to those of diamond but at a lower cost.
Being an artificial stone, cubic zirconia has no virtues in lithotherapy, but by adorning a jewel, it brings much well-being and confidence to wear it due to the brilliance and elegance it exudes.

Lithotherapy is a pseudoscientific practice of unconventional medicine based on the belief in a power that certain stones would possess, which through their vibrations and energies would help improve psychic and physical well-being or even cure diseases. However, there is no scientific evidence of these benefits. The practice of lithotherapy and the use of stones should therefore not replace medical advice. 

Choosing your size

Before ordering a ring, check the size that suits you.

To do this, if you do not have a ring sizer, you can measure the circumference of its location on your finger with a thread or a strip of paper and then measure its length with a ruler.

Generally, the ring size corresponds to the average of the size of the finger joint and its location on the finger. For example, if the finger circumference at the ring's location is 51mm and the joint circumference is 53mm, the average of 52mm will correspond to a ring size of 52.

Remember that every body shape is different, that it does not always conform to this rule, and that finger size can change quickly with cold and heat.

You can use the following table to help you:

A ring should not be too tight to avoid injury risks, nor too loose to avoid loss risks.
It is therefore advisable to measure a well-fitting ring that you wear regularly to help you choose the size of your new ring.

Care and Use Tips

To preserve the jewel from premature aging and maintain its brilliance, MOONSTRA advises you to avoid:

• exposing it to fresh, salt, or chlorinated water. Remove the jewel before showering or swimming.
• exposing it to sand and salt. Remove the jewel before going to the beach.
• exposing it directly to perfumes, deodorants, creams, and other cosmetic products. Wait for the products to be absorbed by the skin before putting on the jewel.
• exposing it to oxidizing products. Remove the jewel before doing household chores or DIY.
• exposing it to heavy perspiration. Remove the jewel before any intense physical activity.
• keeping it on for sleeping and manual activities.

To clean and polish the jewel, MOONSTRA advises you to gently rub it with a soft-bristled brush moistened with water and a mild shampoo or Marseille soap, then rinse it with clear water and finally dry it with a soft cloth.
